Relationships are a crucial aspect of our lives which is why it is important to invite God in your current relationship or future relationship. This prayer for a relationship with a specific person is necessary because in life you get what you command and when you make these prayers, it speeds up the process.

I have also been at a point in my life where I prayed for a relationship with a specific person. I remember the relationship was shaky and he did not want to introduce me to his family. And you know if a guy does not want to introduce you to his family it means that he is not sure if he wants to make you his wife.

I had the option of letting things be or choosing to fight for the health of the relationship through prayer. I choose the latter. And after I had prayed, he changed his mind about us and he came and took me to meet his family.

Can you pray for a relationship with someone?

Yes you can pray for a relationship with someone and if you are not already doing it, you should start today. 

Why is it that it is right to be specific on where you desire to work or stay but feel guilty about being specific when it comes to your love life?

The bible in John 14:14 says “If you ask for ANYTHING in my name, I will do it. So whether you need God to fix your relationship, strengthen your relationship, you want direction for the relationship, you can ask for it in prayer, because it is part of ANYTHING.

Generic prayers are good when you do not know what you want, but if you already know what you want you can make a specific prayer. But remember God still has the final say.

Prayer for a relationship with a specific person

Heavenly Father, I thank you for grace

Thank you for bringing (person’s name) into my life

Our relationship is currently going through these challenges (list them i.e. infidelity, has found someone else, no affection etc)

Your word in Philippians 4 verse 6 says that we must be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving we should make our requests known to God 

And you also said in Matthew 7 verse 7, “ask and it shall be given to you”

I am asking that you restore my relationship with (person’s name) and bring us closer than ever before

For I know that nothing is impossible with you according to your word in Luke 1:37

In the name of Jesus 

Amen.

Prayer To Make Someone Love You Deeply 

Heavenly Father, I pray for my relationship with ___(name of person). May you intensify the love in the relationship. May they love me deeply and may nothing come in between our love. Amen.

Dear Lord, things are not going as I’d hoped with ___ (name of person). I pray that you soften their hearts so they may love me deeply. I know that nothing is too hard for you Lord. Amen.

Prayer To Marry A Specific Person

Dear God, I really love ___(name of person) and would love to spend the rest of my life with them. I pray that they feel the same way about me. May you align our thoughts and hearts so we may eventually get married and start a family together. You said in your words, “it is not good for a man to be alone and you will make him a helper suitable for him”. Amen.

Prayer To Make Him Think Of Me

Lord I pray for ___(name of person) to think of me. May I feature in his thoughts. May you give him no rest until he reaches out to me. Amen

How do you pray for a potential relationship?

So you have met someone that you really like but you are unsure how they feel about you and you want the relationship to materialize into something serious, then say this prayer for a potential relationship:

Heavenly Father thank you for bringing (person’s name ) into my life

Lord God you said in your word in Genesis 2 verse 18 that it is not good for the man to be alone. You will make a helper suitable for him. 

And in Genesis 2 verse 24 you said, Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh

Lord I have seen someone that I like and I would be happy if this can be a fruitful relationship that leads to marriage

Touch the heart of (person’s name) so that they see me being fit to be their spouse

May Christ be the center of this relationship and may we love each other, just as you loved us

In the name of Jesus 

Amen

How do you pray for the man you love?

We often make prayers to God to scatter our enemies, so it is also appropriate to make an opposite prayer, which is to ask God to bring the man you love closer to you. 

This is the prayer to make for the man you love

Heavenly Father, I thank you for the gift of love

I love (man’s name) and I pray that you make us one

May peace be restored in the relationship 

And may our relationship glorify you

In the name of Jesus

Amen

How do I ask God to fix my relationship?

The bible says in Hebrews 4:16, “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.”

God can still fix that broken relationship if you go to him in prayer. Pray this prayer for God to fix your relationship:

Heavenly father, I thank you that I can come to your throne of grace

Lord you can see the state of my relationship with (person’s name)

It is not the way I want it to be

Your word in John 10 verse 10 says that The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; you came that we may have life, and have it to the full.

The God of life and restoration, I ask that you fix and restore my relationship with (person’s name)

In the name of Jesus

Amen

Prayer for relationship strengthening

Sometimes we make the mistake of using our own strength to sustain a relationship. We do all the right things yet the relationship still falls apart or our partners still drift away from us. 

The bible says in Psalms 127 verse 1, “Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.“ 

Pray this prayer for the strengthening of your relationship:

Heavenly Father, thank you for being my strength

My relationship with (person’s name) has become shaky

I pray that you will strengthen our union. 

May our bond be unbreakable because your word in Mark 10 verse 9 says, “what God has joined together, let no man separate.”

May our love be a reflection of 1 Corinthians 13 where our love is patient, kind, not envious, not boastful, not proud, not dishonest, not self-seeking,  not easily angered, does not keep a record of wrongs, does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 

May our love always protect, trust, hope and always perseveres. 

And above all, may our love never fail. 

In the name of Jesus Amen.

Prayer for direction in relationship

There is a time when you will be in a state of confusion regarding a relationship and require God’s guidance on your next move. 

Maybe you are not sure whether you should commit to your partner, work things out or cut ties, wait for them or even move on. 

The bible in Proverbs 3 verse 5 says, “trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”

In Jeremiah 33:3 the bible says, “Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.”

Pray this prayer for direction in a relationship:

Heavenly Father, I need your guidance in my relationship with (person’s name) 

I don’t know which way to take, but you see what lies ahead.

You said when we call to You, You will tell us great and hidden things we do not know. 

I need to know which path to take regarding the relationship 

I know that you will make my path straight in the name of Jesus 

Amen.

Prayers for relationship with boyfriend

It is necessary to start praying for a relationship with your boyfriend even at the early stages of the relationship. This way, you will be setting a good foundation.

As you pray for God to touch the heart of your boyfriend, it is also important to pray for God to touch you because there might be certain things that your boyfriend does not like about you.

The bible in Matthew 7 verse 3 says, “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?“

Pray this prayer for your boyfriend:

Lord I thank you for bringing a man like him into my life

I pray that Your will be done over his life

Lord touch him, so he can be a Christ-like husband

And remove any character in me that may be sabotaging the relationship

Rekindle our love and guide us

In the name of Jesus 

Amen

How do I pray for my future partner?

It is important to pray for your future partner even before you meet him or her, for God honours our desires. Pray for these aspects in your future partner because if these qualities are lacking, the relationship will fail:

1. A man or woman after God’s heart 
2. A partner who is loving and display the qualities listed in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
3. For a partner who is responsible 
4. A partner who is disciplined
5. A faithful partner
6. A successful partner because to live a decent life you need money. So you want your partner to be have a job when he looks for one or a successful business.
7. Your partner to be in good health
8. Your partner to live a long life: Sometimes good love can be shortlived. So these also encompass their protection.
9. To be fruitful so that when the time comes to have kids, there are no complications
10. God’s peace and joy so that your partner is always mentally well

Pray this prayer for your future partner:

Heavenly Father, I bring my future partner before you today

May he/she know and serve you

May she/he be loving, disciplined, faithful, be in good health, successful, peaceful and joyful 

May he/she always be under your protection

In the name of Jesus Amen.

Short prayer for someone you love

Lord Jesus, you know I love this person

Cover him/ her and our relationship in the precious blood of Jesus

Strengthen our relationship 

And bring us closer together like never before

May we find joy in you and in our love

In the name of Jesus 

Amen
